Character Couture Package Details

The Character Couture packages offer a fun way for adults to spend a little time at a Disney salon getting the Disney princess makeover treatment. Consider this the adult version of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, the coveted Disney princess makeover experience for kids.

What characters can you choose from with Character Couture?

What I love the most about these Disney makeover packages is that you have options. How many characters can you choose from with Character Couture? How about ALL of them!

The Character Couture, unlike Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, allows you to discuss what you’d like to see with your stylist. Come in with your inspiration and they will literally work their magic on you. No two looks are the same.

And they are great with tailoring to your needs. I had one specific request: I wanted to look cute. The makeup artist said, “No problem! I specialize in cute!” and she totally nailed it.

SO SO SO CUTE! I look just like a doll, and since I was Disneybounding Woody from Toy Story, it was perfect!

I saw some makeovers online that were super dramatic, with heavy eye makeup and gorgeous lip colors. STUNNING, to be sure.

That was not what I personally was looking for on this occasion. We were headed into the opening party for Toy Story Land, and I wanted to look the part of a toy in Andy’s backyard.

Disney magic, y’all, it totally is a thing!

The stylists are pretty much open to anything: princess makeovers, villains, the fab 5, galactic heroes, and so much more. Apparently, Queen Elsa is still the most requested look- no, we Disney fans are not letting it go!

This Disney princess makeover for adults isn’t limited by age, either- kids are welcome here too. This might be a great option for kids who prefer a less stimulating environment; the experience is more low-key and professional than the immersive pixie-dusted Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique.

How Much Do the Character Couture Packages Cost?

Let’s just get this part covered first. Yes, it’s an added expense to your Disney World vacation. But you know what they say, all magic has a price.

And in this case, I’d say it’s totally worth it. Where else are you going to have the chance to experience a real Disney Princess makeover for adults? Nowhere but Walt Disney World, my friends!

There are tiered packages to choose from with each Character Couture package priced accordingly. If you are just looking for an awesome hairstyle to rock around the parks, you might choose the Storybook. If you are looking for the full Disney Princess makeover then the Timeless Transformation is for you!

Discounts Available for Character Couture Packages

Heck yes, you can use those discounts! But like all Disney packages, they cannot be combined. So pick the one that gives you the most bang for your buck and be sure to mention it when you call to book your package.

How to book the Character Couture Makeover

Currently, there is not an option to book online. You won’t be able to see this in your My Disney Experience app either, so make sure you note what time and location your appointment is for- you don’t want to get caught up in your meal at Whispering Canyon Cafe and miss your time.

The Character Couture phone number is 407-939-7727 When you call to make your Disney princess makeover appointment, hit option1 for the Spa and you can ask for the Character Couture experience.

There are four locations offering the makeovers at the Disney Resort hotels, so be sure to pick the one that best meets your planning needs.

Disney World Character Couture packages can be booked at Ship Shape Salon at Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resorts

Character Couture Hairstyles

Here are a few of the Character Couture hairstyle options. This is just to give you an idea of what is possible, but I am convinced the stylists could work any kind of magic you wish!

Protip: Be sure to bring any additional props or add-ins that you might like. Be a little extra: you won’t regret it!

Woody/Jessie from Toy Story

The salons do have some items (such as princess tiaras and hair extensions) but if you want a specific look or item included, be sure to bring it along.

I fell in love with the tiny cowboy hat that I found in Epcot and brought an extra bandana in case the ladies had a use for it. They did: it was used to add an additional flourish to my cowboy hat fascinator! They just cut a few pieces out and included it in the hairstyle.

Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story

Tania from Lolalambchops.com was my partner in crime (as always!) and came dressed as Buzz Lightyear. You can check out her Character Couture Makeovers FAQ post over here.

She brought her own purple bow to add to her hair, and we agreed that it sealed the deal on her look.

Character Couture Makeup Options

As I noted before, I went for “cute.” I didn’t want crazy dramatic eye makeup, because, well- that’s just not me.

And I didn’t think it was Woody/Jessie either, so that made sense to go a little lighter on Character Couture makeup option for me.

But I loved my eyes, loved the lashes they put on and adored the freckles! My favorite part of the makeup, though, was how she made my lips look like a cupie doll. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so adorable in my life!

Tania had a little galactic flourish to complete the Buzz Lightyear makeup. I loved how pretty she looked, but how clearly she represented Buzz.

This makeup was to Infinity and Beyond, for sure!

Character Couture Villain Makeup

Renee and Nas opted to show their dark side— and the stylists at Character Couture totally made these ladies look beautifully villainous.

Nas opted for an Ursula look- check out those eyelashes, y’all! I think they were a mile long.

But how hot was this?!

And Renee slayed as Gaston, my all-time favorite Disney meet and greet. If you ever get a chance to visit Gaston in the Magic Kingdom– DOOOO IT! He’s amazing— and he will make sure you know that. Ha!

But Renee as Gaston- totally swoon-worthy. I am digging the eyes big time. This is going on my short list for a return visit to the Character Couture.

Character Couture Tips for the First Time Adult Princess

Here are a few tips I think could be helpful when you book your character couture experience. And trust me- this is an experience! Be prepared and you will have a wonderful time being made over like the Princess you are.

Plus your Princess Half Marathon Weekend. Ladies: this was a blast with my blogging besties and I think you’d love to do this during the runDisney Princess Half weekend. I can’t say I’d run in this makeup- at least not the half marathon! But it would sure be fun to do with your girls before hitting the Expo or as a celebration after the half. You might want to check out the “Everything runDisney” post I put together for all the deets on one of these weekends!

This squad? They would totally be down for a runDisney inspired Disney princess makeover for adults!

Or make this part of your Not-So-Scary-Halloween-Party costum. Halloween is one of the best times to visit the Disney parks; make your Disney Halloween party one to remember by visiting Character Couture for that adult makeover before your party this year.

Arrive with clean, dry hair.

Wear or bring your own foundation/base. The makeovers don’t include that level of makeup. Just lips and eyes!

Disneybound your Character Couture look. Seriously… this was such a fun and easy part of my Character Couture makeover. I loved Disneybounding as Woody from Toy Story- and the stylists loved it too. They even helped me go that extra mile and helped write “Andy” on the bottom of my bootie.

Speak up! Communication with your stylist is the key to happiness with the Character Couture packages. If you don’t like the direction things are going, ask for a correction. The stylists want you to be happy with your look. If its too much or not enough, ask for a change!

Location, location, location! There are four Disney salons offering the services: pick the one that makes sense for your travel plans. We were heading right into Hollywood Studios for Toy Story Land after our makeovers, so booking at the Yacht Club locations made perfect sense.
